Save the Date and register for one of the leading events specifically designed for Law Firm Leaders. The event is the 19th Annual Law Firm Leaders Forum. It sold out last year, so you'll want to get your registration in early (take advantage of the Early Bird Offer).

What do the significant changes in the legal industry mean for how legal work will get done and how it will be delivered going forward? And what do these changes mean for law firms? Plan to join us at this event where leaders from law firms as well as from new entrants into the field will gather to address these questions.

Testimonials from Previous Attendees"The topics of discussion were relevant. We heard from some very key industry people who provided their unique perspective."
"The entire program was top notch. Especially insightful for me were the pre conference workshop on pricing, Susskind's thoughts at both the beginning and end if the program, Dr. "Larry Richards' insights, and the overall confirmation that mid sized firms such as mine are at an advantage in the current environment. I don't know why more people do not attend this conference. It is the absolute best if all the others offered."
"The ability to interact with other MPs is great."
"High level, cutting edge input. Great speaker line-up. Ralph Baxter adds great insight."
